What's Your Favorite Starting Hand?

[Hadazzah]

Apart from pocket aces, what's a hand you always enjoy seeing?"

[rexwyn439]

Suited connectors like 7-8, hits flops in ways people never expect and it's cheap to see a turn.

[wrenenne]

Suited aces for me, especially ace-five suited. Cheap to play and the wheel potential always catches people sleeping.

[tacoball]

suited kings are my go to tbh they feel sneaky strong preflop

[steintia]

Suited aces for sure, ace-five is fun but ace-deuce suited is my little secret weapon — that wheel draw feels like printing money when it lands.

[Ryxmia]

Suited connectors are my jam too, 5-6 suited specifically — feels like you're either flopping nothing or a monster with zero in-between lol

[Larslor]

Suited aces are fun, but I'm all about jack-ten suited — hits so many straight and flush combos it just feels crafty preflop.

[Tycyn]

pocket jacks are like that ex you know is trouble but you keep going back anyway lol

[elainamagic]

yeah 9-10 suited hits different for me tbh sneaky straight potential lol lol

[phantenne]

Pocket tens man, I swear it's the most underrated premium in micro stakes cash games cause people stack off with top pair so easily when you hit a set.

[Facelace23]

AA lol

[thornixick]

I remember hitting a full house with pocket threes on the flop once and the whole table just stared in disbelief, so now I always crack a smile seeing that hand.

[Umbraon]

I dunno, pocket jacks are ovrrated honestly. I see those and just brace myself for another board where at least one overcard flops lol.

[lorramia]

How often does suited ace rag actually pay off for you?

[rajadch9]

Pocket kings just feel so solid until an ace peekks out on the flop and I gotta hold my breath.

[runeoserra]

I actually enjoy suited connectors like eight seven of hearts, it just opens up so many fun ways to build a hand and keeps the flop exciting even when you miss.

Pocket nines. Sneay set potential when board runs low.

Totally agree. I love suited connectors like 8-7 of hearts too. Even when you miss the flop, there are still so many ways you can turn it into something. It makes the game way more interesting.

Won a big pot with jack ten suited last night.

[sophkaori]

Pocket fives always make me grin cause nobody ever sees the straight coming when the board runs 4 6 7 or something similar.

[ivoryesse]

Jack ten suited just because it looks pretty when it lands. I know its not the strongest but I chase those straight and flush draws way more than I should.

[wickosyth]

Queen ten off suit always feels sneaky good in late position when everyone limps and you can just open raise and steal a bunch of dead money. Half the time you whiff completely but the other half you hit top pair with a decent kicker and can actually control the pot a bit easier than with ace rag.

[ladyseo7]

Jacks. I don’t know why I keep playing them like they’re aces but I just cant flod pre. They win small pots and lose big ones and yet every time I see them I still get that little buzz.

[Hollowalyx65]

I once rivered a boat with deuce seven offsuit and now I just cant hate seeing it
